A couple of months ago, I wrote a blog about nerve receptors at work in Bowen treatment. Many of those nerve receptors reside just under the skin in the layers of fascia. I was tempted to delve into fascia at the time, but it's a subject so…

A couple of weeks ago, the Marrickville Police and Citizens Youth Club (PCYC) asked if I’d return to support their kids sport program - their annual 3 on 3 basketball competition. Of course I said I would - last year’s event was…

People can survive without food for weeks or even months, but without water for only a few days. All our organs, including the brain, rely on water to function properly. We simply can’t live without it.
And Bowen practitioners rely on clients drinking plenty of water in the days after treatment for them to get the best results.

“bowen is not designed to make you instantly feel better, it is designed to make you instantly heal better”
Bowen moves give the body triggers to begin a healing process, that can continue for days after the treatment.

Sciatica and Piriformis Syndrome have similar symptoms - pain that radiates through the buttock and down the back of the leg - but the underlying cause is different. Bowen Therapy can help give relief to both.
